Winter roadmap reveals all.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows arrived as an almost complete package on Switch 2 at the end of last year. The only content missing from this portable version was the Claws of Awaji expansion — which had landed on other systems back in September — for which Ubisoft provided a vague ‘coming later in 2026’ release window. Well, the big Ubi has today been a bit more specific.
As revealed in the new Shadows Winter Roadmap, the expansion will launch on Switch 2 on 10th March. This paid DLC includes a whole new area to explore and storyline to follow, as Naoe and Yasuke head to the island of Awaji to track down a lost treasure. There are also new weapons and skins to unlock in the DLC, all of which can be carried back over to the main game to use as you please.
